Reborn as King [Entertainment]

"Okay! Card!" Du Zhuang's excited voice came from a distance, Zhang Xiuji blinked as if waking up from a dream, and turned to look at the director.

"Very good! Zhang Xiuji will repeat the last part again. Stand up when receiving the certificate, and say the word 'abnormal' in Feiran's ear. Feiran, the expression just now is very good! Do it again, is it okay?"

Feiran raised her face for the makeup artist to touch up her makeup, and at the same time raised her hand as an OK gesture.Zhang Xiuji looked at Feiran, then at Du Zhuang who was staring at the playback with excitement on his face, and suddenly raised his foot and walked towards the director.

"Director, can I watch the replay of that segment just now?"

Du Zhuang didn't seem surprised by Zhang Xiuji's request, and greeted cheerfully: "Come, come, let's watch together."

You Bei, who was resting on the sidelines, also came over with a water glass in his hand. While watching, he was amazed at the same time: "It's really a formidable young man. I haven't seen a newcomer with such a good line for many years."

When Du Zhuang heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said, "Xiuji handled it well here, even more delicate than in the audition. It seems that you have studied the script well, hahahahaha... cough cough."

You Bei took a funny look at Du Zhuang.He knew that Du Zhuang was afraid that if he praised Feiran, Zhang Xiuji would get angry and turn his head to wear Feiran's little shoes, so he made an embarrassing bragging to make amends.But he didn't think that he just praised Feiran's good lines, and didn't say that Zhang Xiuji's acting was bad. His embarrassing bragging made it appear that Zhang Xiuji was not as good as Feiran.

Sure enough, he is a well-known honest person in the director circle, but it's no wonder that Du Zhuang has never worked with Zhang Xiuji, so he naturally doesn't know the temperament of this popular niche.

Zhang Xiuji ignored Du Zhuang's embarrassment, watched the playback silently, and asked Du Zhuang to play it again.After watching it repeatedly like this three times, Zhang Xiuji stood up: "Director, I want to reshoot that scene just now, is that okay?"

Du Zhuang was scratching his ears in his heart, but when he heard Zhang Xiuji's request, he thought his ears were ringing: "What? Reshoot? Okay, okay! Take your positions, let's do that scene again!"

Generally, actors ask for reshoots because they have a new understanding of the script and characters. The effect of reshoots will only be better, and few directors are unwilling.It seems that Zhang Xiuji was stimulated by Fei Ran's excellent performance and a healthy competition was formed.If this development continues, the film will only become smoother and more exciting!

Du Zhuang's heart is simply flattered!

After filming the interrogation scene, Fei Ran always felt that Zhang Xiuji was sneaking at him whenever he was free.If you want to say admiration, those eyes are too serious; if you want to say hate, they are too hesitant to talk, staring at you like a light on your back, you can't express your pain.

It was lunch time that day, and Feiran who had received a lunch box was about to hide in a place where no one was around and eat slowly, but was caught by You Bei in the dressing room, where he sat with Zhang Xiuji.

Feiran originally planned to be a quiet and handsome man, but You Bei suddenly asked him: "Xiao Fei, when will you show me the biography of Zhao Yihang you wrote?"

Feiran was stunned.Before joining the group, Fei Ran had written several thousand-word biographies of the characters. After joining the group, he added a lot of content because of his feelings during filming.You Bei saw it while writing it, and the two of them had a lively discussion, why did they suddenly want to read it at this time?

Feiran glanced at Zhang Xiuji thoughtfully, nodded and said, "If Teacher You wants to see it, I'll bring it here tomorrow."

At this time, Zhang Xiuji interrupted abruptly: "Can I watch?"

Feiran nodded without any surprise: "No problem."

"Thank you," Zhang Xiuji felt relieved when he heard Feiran's answer without hesitation, and he smiled a little, "The last expression of yours in the interrogation scene last time really shocked me! You What did you think at the time?"

"Haha, is that so?" Fei Ran smiled complacently, "I think this Zhao Yihang is indeed a pervert, but the education he received since childhood made him suppress his nature all the time, and Fang Mingxuan punctured the window paper. Desperate. But because of his nature, there is a sense of relief... Is my expression scary?"

"It's not scary enough, it just makes people feel weird."

"That's good, my handsome face can't appear distorted on the screen."

"...I'm afraid you have misunderstood the word handsome."

You Bei sat on the sidelines and watched the two young people come and go, and drank the soup with a smile, hiding his achievements and fame.

The filming progress of "The Beginning of Man" is just as Du Zhuang thought, very smooth.The benign competition and communication between several main actors has brought the characters in the play to a very high degree of completion.Even Zhang Xiuji, who was relatively weak in his imagination, contributed wonderful acting skills that far exceeded his expectations.

Du Zhuang was originally in a happy mood because of the smooth shooting, but after receiving a phone call, it turned from sunny to cloudy in an instant.There was a gloomy face throughout the afternoon, and the rare shooting ended early.

After calling the leading actors over, Du Zhuangqiang held up a smile and said, "Cough...everyone has worked hard these days. In order to comfort everyone, the investor invited everyone to have a meal and relax at Jufu Building in the studio. Today we will shoot Come here, everyone get ready, the table will start at six o'clock."

After the actors left, Du Zhuang's face collapsed, and he sat on the chair and poured out his bitterness to the assistant director: "It's really good to see the king of Hades, and the little devil is hard to deal with! Tell me, Renjinshi Capital gave 3000 million, what are you asking for?" Not at all, except for the cost calculation once a week, the producer is usually invisible. This Mr. Wang has to change the script and force people. I wait for him to withdraw the capital, and he will not withdraw! Now he is coming to visit the set again A weasel is paying New Year's greetings to the chicken!"

The assistant director didn't take Du Zhuang's worry seriously: "Isn't this kind of thing a common occurrence? Just eat a meal and drink some wine, and it will pass quickly."

Du Zhuang glanced at the assistant director melancholy, and suddenly felt as lonely as snow.

What is he worried about?He is very sad!Such a good child, with good looks, good acting skills, and well-behaved, he was worried that he would be picked up by a wolf with a big tail!If someone else came here, what the hell would he do?But the one who is coming today is Mr. Wang!The well-known, male and female take-all, and the vicious Mr. Wang!

Du Zhuang was worrying about the evening meal like an old lady, and at this moment, Mr. Wang was also thinking about the same thing.

Ever since Du Zhuang got the investment from Goldstone Capital, although he was still polite on the phone, everything he said fell on deaf ears. The script did not change a single word, and even the role of the little lover that he had promised to give him had to find reasons. Changed people.Originally, he wanted to withdraw the capital and forget it, but what his friends in the circle said made him hesitate.

[Goldstone Capital?Good luck bro!There is no loss in the film and television dramas invested by Goldstone Capital, the difference is only that they earn more and earn less.Moreover, Jinshi Capital has always liked to eat alone, and others can't do it if they want to drink soup.Dude boarded this big ship, don't forget brothers! ]

Mr. Wang was skeptical of his friend's words, and after inquiring from many sources, he found out that Goldstone Capital is an investment company and is very famous in the investment circle.Although he will invest in film and television dramas, he has not set up relevant departments, it is entirely the boss's personal hobby.But also because of this, ordinary directors and screenwriters can't find a way to invest in Goldstone Capital, because other companies don't have this business!If you want to find the boss directly, the president of Goldstone Capital is terribly low-key. He has never been interviewed by the news media, and he only knows that his surname is Li.

It is such a low-key person who has the title of Gold Finger in the circle.As long as he agrees to invest, the movie will basically make money without losing money!

No one would have trouble with money, so even though he was very dissatisfied with the director, Mr. Wang still did not withdraw the capital.But that doesn't mean he swallowed it.

Although the investment amount is not as much as that of Goldstone Capital, he also invested 1000 million in real money. If Du Zhuang thinks that he can get rid of himself by relying on Goldstone Capital, that is wishful thinking!

And didn't he say that his lover had no acting experience and couldn't play a supporting actress?I heard that the supporting actor he chose is also a newcomer, if he can act well, why can't his little lover?

For Feiran, it was the first time for a big girl to get on a sedan chair for such a thing as a dinner party.But even though he has never experienced it before, it does not mean that Feiran is ignorant of the dinner.In fact, the bigger the big star production, the more things like dinners.Moreover, these dinners are not full of ulterior and dirty transactions as the outside world guessed.

Generally speaking, the dinner that happens before the casting is usually set up by the agent, with the intention of winning the role for the artist.Most of the time, this kind of dinner is just eating and drinking to make the investors happy. Although the role is not guaranteed, it can be guaranteed.

Of course, you can also "coax" in another way, it depends on personal choice.

During the shooting process, some investors will send people or visit the set in person out of concern about the progress of the shooting.The dinner that happens at this time usually means literally, to comfort everyone, and by the way, I can have a meal with my favorite stars and get in touch with them, why not do it?

But the dinner tonight is a bit intriguing.

Since Du Zhuang answered the phone, he couldn't control his black face; he said he came to visit the set, but he didn't see any new faces all day; he ran all the way to the film and television base far away from the urban area, just to treat someone to dinner?

It seems that the dinner tonight is a grand banquet!Feiran suddenly remembered the bitterness that Du Zhuang poured out in WeChat when he was in Cannes.Maybe it's because they are similar in age, although Fei Ran and Du Zhuang only met once and drank afternoon tea, they hit it off right away and chatted very well.Therefore, after going to Cannes, Fei Ran often chatted with Du Zhuang through WeChat to learn about the preparation progress of the crew.

Everything was going on in an orderly manner, but yesterday Du Zhuang was still complaining about the lack of funds, he couldn't afford to hire the actors he wanted, and wanted to get some more investment.The next day the situation took a turn for the worse. The biggest investor was a Cypriot and wanted to change the script, making Du Zhuang so worried that he wanted to bite him.

From this point of view, the investor who is coming tonight should be that one, right?Although he didn't understand that it was just a meal, at most he would be the uncle and have a few drinks with a smiling face, why did Du Zhuang look so ugly?

Could it be that he was worried about Zhang Xiuji?That's right, Zhang Xiuji looked like a young master at first glance, he probably never did such a thing as making a smile on his face, if he couldn't bear to make a fuss during the meal, it would be a lot of fun.

Let's watch Zhang Xiuji more at night!Just as Feiran made up his mind, someone knocked on the door.Opening the door, You Bei's little assistant was standing at the door smiling brightly.

"Brother Xiaofei, Uncle You invites you and Brother Zhang to take his car to Jufulou together."

"Okay, thank Teacher You for me, I'll be there right away." It seemed that You Bei and him wanted to go together.Fei Ran hurriedly changed her clothes and walked towards You Bei's room.

Little did they know that You Bei wanted to go with him, but the object of worry was not Zhang Xiuji, but him.

Du Zhuang said that Mr. Wang is famous, that's really true.What is as famous as his enthusiasm for investing in film and television dramas is his life style of bullying men and women.Men and women have no taboos, eat all meat and vegetables, stare at the pot while eating from the bowl, and don't forget to look at the pot from the corner of the eye, he is a real old pervert.

If you meet such a person, You Bei should also be worried about Zhang Xiuji.But first of all, Zhang Xiuji's background is not simple, and everyone in the entertainment circle basically knows that unless Mr. Wang's head is squeezed by the door, he will only hit the real estate tycoon's son.Secondly, to be honest, Zhang Xiuji is handsome, but he is far prettier than him!

Beauty is a thing of the same nature as literature.As the saying goes, there is nothing first in literature, and beauty is also a matter of the benevolent and the wise.Zhang Xiuji's handsomeness is the kind of handsomeness that is popular nowadays, tall, with a slap face, fair skin, and clear eyebrows.As for Feiran, Feiran is the kind of eye-catching beauty, with a charm that is rarely seen in modern people.He has the classic temperament of a handsome man from the last century, and this kind of thing has almost disappeared now.

You Bei likes Fei Ran very much, not only because of his good acting skills and hard work, but more importantly, You Bei sees in him the love of his old friend for performing arts.

Many actors have written biographies, but how many of them have been writing for ten years?How many people are willing to write for the little people who play less than 5 minutes?How many young actors can write now?

Feiran has the strength, luck, and willingness to work hard. With the appreciation of Du Zhuang and himself, he has also made friends with Zhang Xiuji, who has a background and resources.

Although there is no way to make it too obvious, You Bei decided to try his best to help Fei Ran, and I just hope that the dinner tonight goes well!
